The curators have been busy deciding on design and layout for the gallery. Have you ever stopped by the Boyden Gallery on the St. Mary's College of Maryland campus? Take a look around! There are many different factors that are involved in designing an exhibition space. Some of these include color, layout, space and many more!
All of these decisions are very important in the process of curating. Nevertheless, the art often dictates how the space is arranged. For instance, a gallery filled with roman statues might be organized differently from a gallery filled with abstract expressionistic works. In a way, curators are artists themselves! They need to manipulate space, create visual interest, and all together engage the viewer!
That's what we're up to right now! Check out the gallery and take into account the space and how its used.
What would you do if you were in charge of an exhibition?
